ICD-10-CMNondisplaced fracture of coracoid process, left shoulder, initial encounter for open fracture
This code describes a break in the coracoid process of the left shoulder that has not shifted from its normal anatomical position. The fracture is open, meaning there is a wound communicating with the fracture site, and this is the first time the patient is receiving treatment for this specific injury.
Use this code for a patient presenting with an open fracture of the left coracoid process where imaging confirms the bone fragments are still aligned. This applies to initial treatment encounters, such as emergency department visits or initial surgical interventions for this specific injury.
